Structure Your Resume There are some must-have sections in your CV Personal information Objective Previous work experience Education Projects developed
E.g. at the university, high school or in free time
Skills and abilities Other experience
E.g. at the university
Resume
Personal Information
Always put it in the top
Include the following
Your name
A photo
Your contacts
Email address
Telephone number
Home address
PersonalInfo
The Contacts Use your personal contacts
Personal email, personal telephone! Never use work contacts
Be sure to have a good-looking email address Even if you use it only for job
applications PeterPetrov@, Peter.Petrov@,
Asen_Georgiev@ Not emails like:
DestructorMachine@,Svalyacha92@, P373rP37r0v@
Objective The objective should be after the personal information What you are applying for?
Be descriptive, but be brief
Don't be overdescriptiveObjective
Previous Work Experience
Write your previous work experience
Best to order them by date
Explain your duties at this position
Don't be overdescriptive about your managers
Better not to include full names and contactsExperience
Education Write down all the schools you have gone to University
High school It is always better to highlight courses you visited and are relevant to the job offer
Add relevant informaleducation E.g. @ Telerik Academy
Education
Projects Developed The best way to show expertise is to show something real Like projects you have developed
This gives a better impression than just plain words like "I am good at…"
No projects? Why not start a project,
to gain experience?
Projects
Skills and Abilities Write down all your skills and abilities All of them are important But some are more important than
others Highlight the skills that are most
relevant tothe current job description
Just mention the othersSkills
Other Experience If you have any other experience that is relevant to the job offer – show it!
Experience
Homework
1. Following our guidelines write your CV
Target it to your preferred job position and employer
If you don't have work experience think how you could change this
If you don't have any projects, start a project (e.g. open-source in GitHub or Google Code)
E.g. create your own web site
Find people who can write endorsements for you
